The Story of Damasteel's RWL34™ (aka RWL-34) SteelRWL34™ is named after the world-famous knifemaker Robert W Loveless, January 2, 1929 – September 2, 2010. Bob Loveless or RW Loveless was an American knifemaker who designed and popularized the hollow ground drop point blade and the use of full tapered tangs and screw-type handle scale fasteners within the art of knife making. He is cited by other knife makers and collectors as one of the most innovative custom knife makers in the world.
Bob discovered the use of the Japanese-made ball-bearing steel ATS34 from Kobe Steel as best suited for his high demands for a stainless hardenable knife steel. Pelle Billgren the founder of Damasteel® was in search of the best stainless knife steels and learned what Bob had discovered. Pelle was able to transform the already good ATS34 into a superior Powder Metallurgy made steel.
Damasteel® was the first in the world to produce a powder metallurgy version of the ATS34 named RWL34™ after Bob Loveless. Today the RWL34™ is made in the world’s most modern powder metallurgy manufacturing facility ensuring incomparable cleanliness.
RWL34™ is a particularly successful product with very high strength and toughness combined with extreme edge sharpness that is easy to maintain. RWL34™ most appreciated features among knife makers are the ease to work with and the ability to mirror finish polish. RWL34™ is a steel in-line with Bob‘s uncompromising thinking of quality and usability.
